The casting of a Panchāngam involves elaborate mathematical work involving high level of spherical geometry and sound understanding of astronomical phenomena, such as [[sidereal and tropical astrology|sidereal]] movements of celestial bodies. However, in practice the tabulation is done on the basis of short-cut formulations as propounded by ancient [[Vedic civilization|Vedic]] sages and scholars. |

Emmeline Plunket in 'Ancient Calendars and Constellations' credited "the authors of the Veda with a somewhat advanced knowledge of astronomy, and an acquaintance with the...constellations of the celestial sphere and Zodiac." |

Historian [[Will Durant]] noted "It is true that even across the Himalayan barrier India has sent to the west, such gifts as grammar and [[logic]], [[philosophy]] and [[fables]], [[hypnotism]] and [[chess]], and above all numerals and the decimal system." |

A typical Panchāngam may state tabulations of positions of [[Sun]], [[Moon]], and other planets for every day of the year on a fixed place (longitude, latitude) and time of day (in 24-hour format IST). The users calculate the remaining data using their relative difference from this fixed place and time. |
